"Great place for some sweet treats and iced coffee. My partner and I had the classic waffles and I loved the iced moka! We sat inside and there was lots of lovely artwork around so the environment was really nice. Only wish there was a bit more syrup on the waffles as we loved it!!"

"We stumbled upon this gem as soon as we arrived in Valladolid & we returned every day we were there! Loved it - beautiful music plays throughout the place. Decor gorgeous and artwork all over from local artists who paint there - we even got to watch one artist at work one time we were there. Delicious matcha lattes & smoothies. Also tried a tuna panini which was delicious. Owners are a beautiful couple who clearly have put their heart into this place."
